What is the business value of a GHG inventory?

Identifying cost effective reduction opportunities: Identify production processes within the company or stages of the value chain where GHG reductions can be realized at least costs.

Reducing resource and energy related costs: Save on resource or energy costs through e.g. increased materials and energy efficiency of the production process, or the development of more energy efficient products and services.

Managing GHG and resource related risks: Share emissions data and reduction goals to build confidence among investors or insurance companies. They may view significant GHG emissions along the value chain as potential liabilities that need to be managed and reduced.

Serving the information needs of your supply chain partners: An increasing number of companies engage suppliers to improve the emissions performance along the value chain. It is not too uncommon to see contractual obligations forcing companies to disclose greenhouse gas data.
